Ingredients

  • 1 loaf of sourdough bread sliced into small pieces
  • 1 box of crackers
  • 1 jar of mixed Italian olives pitted
  • 1 pint blueberries
  • 1 pint blackberries
  • 6 ounces raspberries
  • 1 pound grapes seedless
  • 1.7 ounces dark chocolate broken into squares
  • 1 block vegan feta cheese drained
  • 4 pita bread rounds toasted and sliced into triangles
  • 8 ounces peach jam
  • 6 ounces cashews salted
  • 6.5 ounces vegan sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 bunch celery chopped into matchsticks
  • 1 pound carrots peeled and chopped into matchsticks
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 orange bell pepper sliced

  • 16 ounces mini cucumbers sliced
  • 10 ounces hummus original
  • 10 ounces seitan pepperoni
  • Roasted Za'atar Chickpeas see recipe below
  • Vegan Tzatziki see recipe below
  • Pepita Dip see recipe below
  • Rosemary sprigs for garnish
  • Edible flowers for garnish
  • Olive oil for garnish
  • Black pepper freshly ground

Instructions

  • Make sure all of the ingredients are prepped and ready to go! Start by placing the largest items on the board first, like the hummus, cream cheese, dips, and vegan cheeses.
  • Arrange the remaining larger items around the dips, including the vegetables, bread, crackers, and grapes. Place things where they make sense. For example, put the pita next to the tzatziki and the crackers next to the cream cheese.
  • Fill in the rest of the board with smaller items like the cashews, chickpeas, and berries.
  • Once everything is on the board, garnish the feta and the hummus with a drizzle of olive oil and freshly ground black pepper. Add rosemary sprigs and edible flowers to the board wherever there needs to be a little more color or texture.

Notes

  1. Prep time will vary from person to person. I listed one hour, which includes time for prepping the vegetables. For the board itself, I am quite meticulous so it took me closer to 30 minutes to arrange. If you need a quick appetizer for a party, this can be done in as little as 10-15 minutes if you have the veggies prepped ahead of time. Take your time with it, or throw together in a pinch, up to you!
  2. I find it helps a lot to draw a map of how you expect the board to look. This will help guide you when putting the board together.
